Petrol up by 75 pence a litre as of 1st Jan, and going up again on the 5th Jan with VAT increase, what a discrace.

Rodgerdodger do you really mean 75 pence per litre, what will the cost be now per litre?

Looming petrol duty and VAT rises are to push record petrol prices higher.



On New Year's Day, a government fuel duty increase put another 0.76p on to both petrol and diesel. And on 4 January, the rise in VAT from 17.5% to 20% will mean another price rise.



The AA estimates that the two increases will add around 3.5p to the cost of a litre of both petrol and diesel.

I believe Rogerdodger might have experienced a slip of the decimal point! Todays hike on petrol / diesel is on average .75 of a penny, thought the over increase after Jan 4th is expected to be 3.5p per litre!



Approx average petrol price is £1.24per ltire with diesel at £1.28 ......time to get the hiking boots out I fear!
